Lo-Fi, Mid-Fi or Hi-Fi- What's your system and why?

I've got a Mid-Fi system. Parasound A21 and P3, Vandersteen 2 CE Sig II speakers, Rega Apollo CD player for transport and Schiit Bifrost Uber for a DAC. Sounds very musical to me, but I could go much farther for sound quality
Rate is your rig- Lo-Fi, Mid-Fi or Hi-Fi. Why do you rate it that way?

I had the Bifrost and it was a bottleneck in my system. It's not a bad DAC, it's just not a great one. I went with a PS Audio DAC and it was much better.

I wouldn't consider Parasound or Rega mid-fi gear. And without a doubt, Richard Vandersteen builds speakers that would fall into the "HiFi" category.
I think maplegrovemusic said it best as far reproducing a recording faithfully.
